Israeli holocaust against Gaza:Israeli crimes in Gaza and Palestine should end now

The Social Justice Network is condemning in the strongest words the Israeli crimes against Palestinians in Gaza and other Palestinian occupied territories. The network considers that these crimes are definitely mounting to crimes against humanity, which require urgent international action to bring their perpetrators to justice. Surprisingly enough that all this and the international community is watching carelessly with no action to stop these crimes and atrocities.

“We are very concerned about the international community’s hypocrisy when it comes to Israel’s treatment” said Jamal Daoud, the spokesperson of the Social Justice Network. “Israel is ignoring all international humanitarian treaties, especially IV Geneva Convention regarding treatment of population under occupation, killing people indiscriminately. Israel is becoming very bold in the way it commits mass murders brazenly thus we hear its minister is declaring openly that the Israeli government will order its army to conduct holocaust against Palestinians. Yet, the international community did not move to punish or isolate this renegade state”

“The heightened hypocrisy of the UN and the international community was in its clearest display yesterday. The Security Council was paralysed to adopt resolution calling on Israel to stop its war crimes in Gaza. The Secretary-General was even equating between killing hundreds of civilians and the desperate launching of missiles into Israeli settlements, built on illegally confiscated lands”

The Palestinians were subjected to ethnic cleansing since 1948, their rights as human being was and is still grossly violated, their elected parliamentarians are illegally detained and their lands are grossly confiscated daily. Yet, the Security Council failed to adopt resolution to enforce Israel to stop all these violations and atrocities.

In these sad moments, we stand in solidarity with the Palestinian people under Israeli occupation. We condemn the international community silence on Israeli crimes and gross violation to human rights.

The Network will participate in the vigils planed to be observed outside American consulate, Martin Place, on this coming Wednesday and Thursday to raise the awareness among Australians on this important social justice issue. We note also the deadly silence of most of Australian politicians to demand justice for Israeli aggression’s victims.

The vigils will start from 5 pm on both days.

The international community should act soon to force Israel to stop its declared holocaust on Palestinian people in Gaza and to recognize and to implement international treaties and laws.

The network demands all Israeli generals and politicians who participated in planning and carrying on these war crimes brought to justice, to face the same justice the Nazi generals and politicians faced following their crimes in Europe during the II World War.
